Topic: Final Fantasy X/X-2 HD Remaster, Listen to his story again...

Somehow I would have greatly appreciated the insertion of new dungeons and story chapters to blend smoothly with what we've already played.

Sometimes I find those giant companies so lazy. Maybe it's just me but I don't feel a huge difference with the HD versions. They major reason I'm excited is because I will be able to play it on an handheld system. But well, they'll surely get my money anyway for that collection.

The new arrangements could sound a lot more like the latter example with some work, which would require time. But it doesn't. It mostly sounds like the former example. Sound levels for instruments are off. In its current state, it sounds very unpolished.

I agree. I'm not a "music person", so in layman's terms, it sounds like the "instruments" are better ...but the quality of sound and the volume is off. It still sounds nice, and I do like some of the new liberties taken... I can still see myself switching up songs a lot mid-game. x)

@Parn: Just in case I didn't said that the original soundtrack was terrible, I was never particulary fond of it for the most part. I'm happy with how the remastered version turn it out to be for my own enjoyment and that's that.

Wait - are both soundtracks included? I got the impression we were just getting the remixed tracks.

Listening to both, I prefer the originals. I can't say why, I just don't find the new ones appealing.

Why is a Complete the Sphere Grid (one character) a Silver while Completing the Chocobo riding with 0.00.00 a Bronze?

SE has a twisted version of what is "easy."

Yeah. I hated those blasted sea-gulls and invisible walls with a passion. >_<

I love how getting all the al behd dictionaries are gold, but you don't even get anything for the butterfly hunt or beating all the dark aeons.Safe to say I will not be doing any of the more obscure bullshit this time around, but kudos to anyone who does decide to platinum this. That's going to take a while.
